Re: [Ardanet-developers] status update

Thanks for the update Josh, that's great news (both the website progress and
about your new job) and I completely agree about the cross-platform
approach.  As much as possible, we will keep the UI code separate from the
Engine code where UI stuff tends to be a lot more platform-specific and
Engine stuff tends to be pretty generic.  We should be able to at least
minimize the work required to port stuff over.

Josh H: Can you give us an update on how it's coming with the website
development?  Have you been able to start on that at all or make any
progress?  Do you need anything from me to continue that effort?  Do you
think you can get this done by July 27 in time for Worlds? (or maybe a few
days or a week before then so we have a chance to test and refine it before
Worlds)



Yes, I'm hoping to get something up by July 8/9, or somewhere right around
there.  I also have been busy with work.  I started a new job 2 weeks ago
and am busy learning how things work and all the stuff that goes with a new
job.  But I did start a bit on the website and plan to work on it more next
weekend.  

A quick note about cross platform development:  one thing my new job will
let me do is take more classes in programming.  The company has large
in-house classes on many different topics, so I'm looking forward to getting
a class or two on some Linux C++ developing, so maybe I can help in that
area.  I agree for now we need to shoot for what you guys are familiar with,
but as much as possible let's try to leave the door open to add a linux
client later.  Just my thoughts. 

Okay, back to packing for a weekend trip.
